Tickets for FORBIDDEN PLANET... and Jean Cocteau's ORPHEUS and John Carpenter's DARK STAR, our other featured attraction... will all be FREE, but they're going fast, especially for opening night. If you're in Santa Fe, drop by the box office and get yours now.

Oh, and we also hope to have signed copies of some of my books for sale at the theatre... and maybe other cool stuff as well.

I wish I could be there to go to it! I wish I could be there to have applied to work there. I got mad skills when it comes to movies and shit. ;)But, honestly, this is NOT a criticism, just a thought really....maybe kind of corny, but I'd have shown, JC's La Belle e la Bete as my grand opening retro classic film of The Jean Cocteau Theater restoration Project.:)

I've seen that masterpiece too many times to count but one of my most memorable (kind of life effecting) Film experiences was when I saw it at BAM (Brooklyn Academy of Music) circa 1995, Audio dialog replaced with a live Operetta composed and conducted by Philip Glass. It gives me goose bumps thinking about it. I get emotional about Art that effects me so deeply and that was one of the rare times it did.

Not to be a flatterer, but reading parts of ASOIAF has given me that experience as well. Art is perfect in it's imperfections and nuances indeed.

Break a Leg George. Hope you and Parris find great satisfaction and happiness in this wonderful endeavor!

It just dawned on me....how COOL is that going to be when they re-release La Belle e la Bete!? I have NO doubt you guys will get access to show it very quickly. I'm dreaming of being there....who knows...I'd love to do a road trip with our dogs from NY-Santa Fe. A HS Bestie of mine lives there and I still need to visit her. :)

Hope it goes well George! Looking forward to seeing which films the theatre can get a hold of. The original versions of the Star Wars Trilogy (if possible) would be a cool addition. Living in Canada, it is far for me. Should i ever make it to Santa Fe, I'll check out a movie there.

Keen choice for a premiere show, to you ser off is my Hat. But free? You could easily charge one hundred simoleons and your fans would happily pay it, just to support your noble efforts at restoring a vintage theater. You are certainly not our biznotch, but we are yours when it comes to great historical restoration projects like this.

On another note... would love to see The Room playing here one day, would be great to go all out with Tommy Wiseau and Greg Sestero at the screening. What I found so amazing and lovable about Tommy is he has no idea the fans are laughing at him and that his movie is not the cinematic masterpiece that he thinks it is. Talk about being out of touch!

Congratulations George & Paris! I love to see old movie houses restored and giving back to the community! I was raised to give back (Served in USCG and have fund raised for 5th Ave and Paramount Theaters in Seattle as well as CBLDF and Hero Initiative at multiple conventions)

Hello Mr. Martin, I just wanted to thank you for your AMAZING work, specially for (yes, I promise I will read your other books too) A Song of Ice and Fire. I'm starting a degree on Philosophy and I really wish I can write my tesis about some of your work. It's such a big inspiration. You are the best writer ever. I said (and don't pretend you are not!) THANK YOU again.

PD: I don't care how many time it takes you to write a book, it will be so damn worth.
